Man U Hopes for 'Something Stupid'

Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted it will be agony on Sunday waiting to hear whether Manchester United can profit from "something stupid" happening to Manchester City.

United head to Wearside for their final-day encounter with Sunderland knowing if City win, there is nothing they can do to prevent the league championship heading across town for the first time since 1968.

Ferguson expects City to come out on top against relegation-threatened QPR. However, while there is still a chance, the United boss will not abandon the fight.

"It is a last game of the season thriller," he said. "It is fantastic for the neutral and agony for both clubs.

"I expect Manchester City to win. But as long as human beings are what they are, you never know.
